“A Subtle Charme” at Villa Althea – Relais de Charme / Mango

Located in the heart of the Langhe wine district and surrounded by lush vineyards planted with Dolcetto and Moscato, Villa Althea is a noble country residence dating back to the early 800 and property of the owner’s ancestors.

It is very special to me, too because despite being extremely dense, it is elegantly unique.

The interiors are elegant and adorned with classic-style furniture skilfully combined with an exotic one and precious fabrics by the bright colors. Each room shows great attention to detail, a passion for color and a personal eclecticism in style.

In some ways, I feel quite connected to ita s Malaika is the symbol of simplicity; putting a great deal of attention to details.

This shooting was specifically dedicated to the outfits as part of an ambience.

Each model was photographed in a separate room and to top it all; the final shooting was in the most iconic place of the Villa: the swimming pool of 60 square meters surrounded by large Art Nouveau windows that you can open in Summer and have an outdoor use of the pool.

Most of the pieces are hand-painted by artist Sarah Bowyer – www.sarahbowyer.eu dedicating this collection to Indonesia. As well as the paint on face.

Reminiscing the past into the present
– Water (1997)
– Modern Wedding

These are authentic pieces designed, hand cut & sewn entirely by me.
They are my life-long designer collection, projects from USA that I have kept over the years as my personal archive and inspiration. Despite the years they were made in, they are absolutely contemporary and quite unique, as the 1st project called Water was a true representation of water on body.
The Modern Wedding was all machine-knitted using the finest of yarns: Silk and Angora.
